Fix The Text In Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate With This Simple Tip

[Proverbial Jon]

I have sadly never played a Monster Hunter game before, having never owned a console they are made for. Would anyone recommend this 3DS instalment for a first time player?

Most people don't like/use the 3D effect? Was there some kind of study done on this? Seems a rather definitive, objective statement to make.

Personally, despite being a 3D naysayer, once given a 3DS for a present I came to love the thing. I keep 3D on almost always, unless it's a 2D game I'm playing with tacked on 3D. (Usually meaning DS-to-3DS ports.)

I very rarely use the 3D on my 3DS; it's permanently off by default. I don't find that the 3D enhances the games for me, plus I suffer with eye strain quite easily and the 3D is a notorious killer for that!

Star Fox 64 3D is a game for the 3DS, it has 3D functionality, as you would expect. It also makes use of gyroscopic controls when flying. Considering the 3DS has a "sweet spot" when your holding it for the 3D effect to actually work, moving the console around to fly is next to impossible if you want to maintain a visible screen. I know it's not an argument for turning the 3D off in every game, but it's still mighty annoying!

why wasnt this caught in testing, seriously?

its not like its some obtuse bug were talking about here.

I want this game so much, but I'm not willing to buy a DS or WiiU for one title T-T

Just buy a Wii U when the games start coming out for it that you want. I generally wait until a good 8 or 9 games I want are released on it. Still kicking myself for the impulse buy on my Wii U, but I do love the console itself.

I'm going to be getting this for the U myself.

However I can't help but feel how silly it sounds when I say "I want this game so much, but I'm not willing to build a PC just for one title".

NO BRUCE IT'S NOT TIME YET.

Well, to build a PC is a lot more work than to simply buy a console and plug it in.

True but it's also the principle of it.

I mean to say "build a pc/buy one" is the same as easily going out and buying a console.

It's not one of them "one way only" type arguments or deals.

I didn't know about this. This would probably be why games always look more crisp when you have the 3D slider on. I guess I know what I'm doing first thing when I fire up my 3DS next. Which will probably be tonight as I'm slowly working my way through that new Castlevania game.

If you already have a Wii, just get Monster Hunter 3 and call it a day, to my understanding, the WiiU version just adds a bit of eye candy and a couple of new features, but the core game is pretty much the same, just be sure to get a Classic Controller Pro to play it, sadly it's next to unplayable with the Wiimote and Nunchuck and not because of the waggle, but because of it's lack of buttons, especially for the camera.

I put 300+ hours into Tri.


I'm also reluctant to get Ultimate because it's essentially an expansion to Tri.

Here's your reason for buying it
